In a recent study published in the journal Nature, an international team of researchers developed a novel approach to infer parent-of-origin (PofO) of alleles without parental genomes. Genome-wide ...

In Mendelian inheritance patterns, you receive one version of a gene, called an allele, from each parent. These alleles can be dominant or recessive. Non-Mendelian genetics don’t completely follow ...
